British Library, Bangalore invites you to enrol your kids in an interesting workshop on Geometry. Geometry is often taught as more theory than practice- full of complex theorems and even more complex proofs. This workshop is aimed at students, aged 9 - 11 years, who already have a basic introduction to the subject with respect to straight lines, circles and angles. Tailored to encourage students to do geometry with paper and pencil activities along with dynamic geometry software, this workshop would go a long way to help students understand geometrical figures and their constructions.
